Niobophosphate Glass as Sintering Additive for Al2O3-YAG

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this study, the following compositions were produced: Al2O3-YAG laser with 2, 4, 6 and 15% by weight of niobophosphate glass (30mol%P2O5-30mol%Nb2O5-20mol%CaO-20mol%CaF2). Sintered discs were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-Ray diffraction (XRD) with the refinement by the Rietveld method and density. The YAG-Al2O3 composite sintered at 1450 °C showed densification of 90%, which indicates the effectiveness of the sintering additive.
